Green Bay National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness Area

Green Bay National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness Area is a small, federally designated Wilderness in Wisconsin protecting 2 acres of primitive backcountry managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The area is closed to all motorized and mechanized travel, including mountain bikes and other wheeled equipment—a true non-motorized refuge for foot travel only.

Visitors should expect solitude and an intimate backcountry experience, though the refuge's modest size means day hiking and short visits are the primary use. Like all federal Wilderness, the area operates under strict Leave No Trace principles: pack out all waste, stay on established routes, camp only in designated areas if permitted, and respect wildlife habitat. Access and seasonal conditions depend on refuge management policies and local weather; contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for current information on entry points, permit requirements, and seasonal closures before you go.
